Servers are moving to ARM as well, HP and Dell for example: http://h17007.www1.hp.com/us/en/iss/110111.aspx http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/high-performance-computing/b/weblog/archive/2012/06/01/better-density-less-power-consumption-at-heart-of-dell-s-arm-based-ecosystem-building-program.aspx We could guess RHEL 7 will build on the ARM development in Fedora. And I personally would really like to run something that's not x86. Regards, --Simone -- You cannot discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore (R. W.
